Since we declared a Climate Emergency in 2019, we have produced a Council Climate Strategy and Climate Change Action Plan to help us achieve our vision to become a carbon neutral council by 2040, working within a low carbon economy and lifestyle. This will be reflected in our travel, homes, businesses, visitor experiences and communities.

Check out some of the following pages below to see how we are tackling climate change, what we have achieved so far and what we are working on as well as information on funding and grants for environmental projects and information on biodiversity.
